Workshop on Supporting Economic Growth Through Effective Employment Services
September 29-30, 2004
The Secretariat is co-sponsoring this workshop with the Inter-American Conference of Labor Ministers (IACML) and the Organization of American States (OAS).
The purpose of this workshop, which springs from an agreement reached by the Council during its Seventh Ministerial Meeting in Washington D.C. to make a North American contribution to the implementation of the Action Plan of the 13th Inter-American Conference of Ministers of Labor, is to provide a forum for discussion on the fundamentals of employment service systems as a support to economic growth. This will include lessons learned in the design and applicability of a number of employment service models within regional labor markets. The workshop will also examine cooperative initiatives that have taken place between countries, with the objective of developing, within the IACML framework, proposals for continuing cooperative activities and improving the effective use of employment service systems.
